Erm, Archangel range hasn't changed since the 2.2 betas... Are you talking about before that?

I think he was talking about the Archangel range before the 2.2 betas (25000 instead of 15360 or 195 tiles instead of 120 tiles) if he was refering it's "wide map range".Zarel wrote:Erm, Archangel range hasn't changed since the 2.2 betas... Are you talking about before that?

Don't take Mr_E too seriously. I have to deal with him in real life and he's just as much of a pain. His favorite Warzone strategy is turning off VTOLs and then using Cheat Engine to spam Archangels. I'd hate to think about what he's going to do with the transports now...
Re: New testing build for 3.0 is now up!
I'm not sure But the overall look Of pre-3.0-1 is not as crisp and clean as trunk is. Just the impression I get from looking at the cliff textures.
I may be wrong
Regards Berg
PS: Ignore that above seems the texture page size was stuck on 256

Meh... No VTOL games are for people who neglects AA defense or don't know how to use VTOLs/can't stand for being owned by VTOLsHis favorite Warzone strategy is turning off VTOLs...
This is real intriguing The Black Dragon Clan do not tolerate cheating in Warzone and take this very seriously. Members who got caught using Cheats/Hacks in Warzone will be immediately banned from our clan...and then using Cheat Engine to spam Archangels.
Maybe... spamming Super Transporters with something bad-ass inside?I'd hate to think about what he's going to do with the transports now...
Sorry for posting off-topic stuff. Now we can go back to the topic.

Re: New testing build for 3.0 is now up!
hey i'm adapting my strategy to support vtols i actually have a good Vtol and ground strat, yes i use cheat engine and i am working to fix it, and about the "map wide" thing what i'm referring to is, this: i could build Arcangels in my base on one side of the map... say 8c-wheel, build a sensor tower on the other side and they would still be able to own enemies, if you want me to leave BDC i will then...
I'm not always on but when I am you know it.

Shooting over walls
I liked to place towers behind walls or six packs of hardpoints - 2x3 scourge is my favorite - in the previous versions. In 3.0 this does not work as before, towers behind walls do not fire over walls most of the times.
Before I open a ticket I would like to know if this behavior is intended.
Also, I noticed flickering when I jump at place of the map, e.g. by hitting .

Yes, as part of the new targeting code, shots will not pass though solid objects (including your walls), so if a tower does not have line-of-sight to a target it will not fire.
To get similar results to what you are trying to achieve, try using indirect fire weapons like mortars.

Does this mean if you have a cluster of hardpoints, only the front line will fire?
This is why some features aren't implemented: http://forums.wz2100.net/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=7490&view=unread#p87241

this version will promise to be good !!!!!!!!Buginator wrote:...
[*] How do the new terrain textures look ?
[*] Testing that you really can't shoot through terrain.
[*] Testing the new MP transport, we need feedback on balance and everything else involved with it.
[*] Testing maps with 3/5/6/7 players. Build said maps with FlaME 1.10+ via the checkbox next to X-players (beta)!
[*] Performance issues (The new terrain renderer requires a bit more power from your graphics card.)

Seems so. If this is intended, it does not work properly yet, because sometimes towers behind walls shoot like they used to.effigy wrote:Does this mean if you have a cluster of hardpoints, only the front line will fire?
Anyway, I think this is a major change of gameplay and voids a lot of peoples strategies.
This means that you cannot protect towers by walls, which is very useful to defend your base in early game phases, especially against AI opponents who tend to throw lots of units at you in the beginning.
Re: New testing build for 3.0 is now up!
There's just a dead zone right near the wall, but it looks correct. I didn't notice anything unusual. I just protected a row of towers by walls, and it worked well enough. But still, yeah, it certainly affects the game balance. But i like the way it affects it (:Seems so. If this is intended, it does not work properly yet, because sometimes towers behind walls shoot like they used to.
By the way, i recommend seeing this to everyone who says that "AI opponents who tend to throw lots of units at you in the beginning"
